Even if you have a handicap tag, you DO still have to pay to park in a metered spot. If you do not, you will be subject to parking tickets or having your car towed. If there is a metered space marked as a handicapped spot, only people with handicap tags can park there, and they must pay the meter.

There are no federal regulations regarding parking. In many states, vehicles displaying handicap placards do not have to feed meters and may overstay time limits. In other states, handicap vehicles are required to pay the meter and observe the time limits, just like all other vehicles on the road. Consult your state's vehicle code for more information.

To my knowledge, this is not federally regulated. Even within local statutes, unless your jurisdiction has a waiver and you are waived by displaying a handicapped placard, you are subject to the same meter payments as every other citizen in the jurisdiction.

The Law requires commossiner of motor vehicles to insure special handicaped license plates and removable windshield placecards to any person blind or with disabilities that limit or impair walking. They must have certification of disability from a medical professional estiblished by law. The commissioner my suspend any plate by law.

The answer to this question depends on the guidelines set up by the person or company that owns the meter. Some businesses or college campuses will allow you to park at a meter and not pay if you have a handicap tag and others may not. Check with the company in charge of the meter to know for sure.

It all depends on your State's laws concerning parking meters and disability tagged / placarded vehicles. In Maryland, if the meter is, for instance, a 2 hour meter, you can park for 4 hours, after that you have to pay full meter fees.
